I've been looking into doing similar with a 1957 ford popular and 10k is normal if not cheaper than I have seen. Unless you have good electrical knowledge you are at the mercy of people that will be only too happy to take your money. Doesn't seem to be much help from the so called ev community. You either know how to do it or it's tough.Hello All,
I have a 56' Ford Thunderbird and can quite determine which direction I should take. I am limited greatly by my budget so I am questioning whether to complete a full Nissan Leaf Transplant or purchasing an EV Conversion Kit.
In my research it seems that the Nissan Leaf transplant would be the most cost effective, however I am not sure anyone has been completely successful and I'd want to replace the batteries for more range a some point.
On the other hand EV Conversion Kits seems extremely expensive, I received a quote from a reputable company that was 10k before batteries.
Thoughts?
